    Hi Lee,

    DNN Creative has certainly helped me get up to speed quickly with DNN. Thank you!

    It seems that I need to get more "down and dirty" with the core Reports module to display some custom reports on my site. Doing a basic query is easy enough. But I would love to see some videos exploring more complex uses of the module including:

       * HTML Template Visualizer
       * XSL Transformation Visualizer
       * optional Chart Visualizer

    In particular, I'm looking for a good way to display a repeating master / detail list (e.g. Orders / Items in Order) in an attractive way.

    The Reports FAQ thread by Charles Nurse and other posts in the Reports forum might provide more inspiration.

    Also, if there is any other documentation and/or tutorials for the Reports module, I'd love to hear about it.

    Hello,

    Yes reports is on the list, I was going to create a tutorial for it this month, but noticed a new version is on its way, so I will create a tutorial when the new version is released, thanks,

    First of all, loving the site!  There is some great information on here.

    Also, I second the Reports Module tutorials request.  Especially templating!

    Thanks,

    Kevin

    Hey Lee,

    I would like to add my name to the list for being interested in a tutorial on how to style the reports module.  I am having a hard time finding good info on this topic.

    Thanks,

    While you are waiting, take a look at Joe Brinkman's blog entry.  That should get you started.

    Lee and Crew,

    Let me add my paying (year 2) membership vote to Reports Module Tutorial Request. Other than Joe Brinkman's brief how-to, there is dirth of info on this core module. As a developer I don't need tools to decode like a Sunday crossword puzzle, I need tools which help me hit the road of productivity.

    I seriously depend on DNNcreative to quickly bridge the knowledge gap.

    Thanks,
    Daniel
